The Serramonte Del Rey neighborhood project is located on an out-of-sight hillside setting that is ideal for higher density housing. To the north and south of the site is multi-family housing. To the west is high-density single-family housing. Buildings will be set into the hillside, largely obscuring them from view. From public streets, new housing will be visible along Serramonte Boulevard and south from Campus Drive. Existing hillside woodlands to the east block views from Callan Boulevard.
The master plan envisions two courtyard housing sites that could include residential towers. Of the six parcels, there are three potential parcels to locate these two residential towers: Parcels C, E, or F.
